Microsoft argued that the jury should only consider the meaning
of the term "windows" as it is understood by the public today.

--open the windows, it is hot insaide
--close the windows, it is cold
--Go and paint those ugly windows
--Vanessa, please call Mr X, and tell him I got a window between 2.00 and 3.00 Hrs
--Used windows for sale ! $10 each.
--The wind is blowing through the open windows.

I leave the rest of the fun to you !
